OK. I'm live with my new PC. Everything works (that I can tell) except
sound. lscpi reports that the sound card is

caitlyn ~ # lspci | grep Audio
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset
High Definition Audio Controller (rev 05)

I managed to modprobe snd_hda_intel and added it to /etc/conf.d/modules,
and I figured that if I could find out where snd_hda_intel lives on the
hard drive, I could probably find some module that would make sound
work, but I can't seem to find it.

Usually those things live somewhere in /lib/modules/<kernel version>/kernel/drivers/

But as you're running Gentoo, YMMV, I'm not as familiar with Gentoo and where they put things.
